Benjamin Watson

Benjamin Watson is a tight end for the New Orleans Saints, a
writer and speaker, and a widely read and followed commentator on social media.

He attended Duke University as a freshman and transferred to
the University of Georgia, where he majored in finance. After an all-SEC senior

England Patriots. He won a Super Bowl ring in his rookie season and appeared in

Cleveland Brownsincluding the 2010 season in which he led the Browns in
receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdownsWatson signed with the
Saints in 2013.

Watson serves on the executive committee of the NFL Players
Association and is the founder of the nonprofit One More foundation along with
his wife, Kirsten. They live in New Orleans with their five children.
